    Fun for All!

    By familyjmjrnjmajrmj  Sep 2, 2002

    I watched this movie for the first time on a 6 hour plane ride, and can say not too many movies in flight can be still called great movies!. I treated my entire family to this movie the next time, and not too many 8 and 6 year olds will sit glued to... a 2 hour film. We even watch the special feature with Jim Morris narrating the true story! (which the film accurately portrays.) My daughter summed it up best when she said.. "I felt like baseball was a game for everyone, after seeing this movie".An inspiration to all of us. Thank you Jim Morris for your grit and determination, and thank you Disney for producing a movie that takes you back to your roots. Please make more like this and see your star shine again!
